Organic English Thyme (1 gallon)
Organic English Thyme (1 gallon)
Aromatic Organic Thyme
(Thymus vulgaris) is a culinary herb renowned for its aromatic potency and diverse applications. This low-growing, woody perennial herb boasts a distinct appearance, characterized by small, oval-shaped leaves with a gray-green hue, adorned with fine, silken hairs. Its stems, while slender, exhibit a robust, square-shaped woody structure with varying shades of green to reddish-brown.
Native to the Mediterranean region, English Thyme has found its way into kitchens and gardens worldwide. Cultivating this herb requires well-drained, sandy, or loamy soil, coupled with ample sunlight exposure. It thrives in moderate climates and remains drought-resistant once established. Propagation is attainable through seeds or stem cuttings, with regular pruning promoting a bushier growth pattern.
Harvesting English Thyme involves careful plucking of its flavorful leaves. Optimal harvest time typically occurs before the plant enters the flowering stage when its aroma and taste are most pronounced. The leaves can be conveniently dried for extended use or frozen with water or oil for preservation.
Rich in thymol and other beneficial compounds, English Thyme transcends its culinary role. It has historically been acknowledged for its potential medicinal properties, serving as a natural remedy for respiratory conditions and demonstrating antibacterial and antioxidant attributes. Its versatility and organic cultivation make it a valuable addition to herb gardens and a staple in diverse culinary endeavors.

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
